+   As with any server daemon that is accessible to the outside world,
+   it is advisable to run <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> under a
+   separate user account. This user account should only own the data
+   that is managed by the server, and should not be shared with other
+   daemons. (For example, using the user <code class="literal">nobody</code> is a bad
+   idea.) In particular, it is advisable that this user account not own
+   the <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> executable files, to ensure
+   that a compromised server process could not modify those executables.
+  </p><p>
+   Pre-packaged versions of <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> will
+   typically create a suitable user account automatically during
+   package installation.
+  </p><p>
+   To add a Unix user account to your system, look for a command
+   <code class="command">useradd</code> or <code class="command">adduser</code>. The user
+   name <span class="systemitem">postgres</span> is often used, and is assumed
+   throughout this book, but you can use another name if you like.
